Maybe it's
Erbitux, aka Cetuximab, a monoclonal antibody, which works on inhibiting the EGFR, (epidermal growth factor receptor) which is better on the kidneys than Cisplatin. I have chronic kidney disease, prior treatment, and
Erbitux that was recommended my last round in October for a recurrence, along with a light doses of Taxotere. Also suggested by another oncologist was carboplatin, if needed, but defiantly not Cisplatin. My creatinine, already high at 2.3 went to 2.7 after treatment. Now due to a kidney stone, it skyrocketed to 7.2.
Erbitux is usually given once a week, along with benydryl to prevent allergic reaction, but heard of patients using different dosage, cycles for an extended period or as maintenance.
